Chapter 71 Big Bad Wolf Movie Project (7, Please Subscribe Automatically)

certainly.

Although he agreed with Chen Mo's plan, Jiang Wen still wanted to confirm it to avoid any mistakes.

"Mr. Chen, I think we should meet and discuss this matter. What do you think?"

Jiang Wen asked Chen Mo cautiously.

"Can."

Chen Mo said directly: "I'm here in Shenghai. You can contact Director Zhang and you two will come together."

Because the Big Bad Wolf Film Fund is aimed at film directors, Chen Mo did not mention Zheng Xiaolong’s name.

"no problem."

Jiang Wen nodded quickly.

Although "Let the Bullets Fly" will have its premiere soon, he feels that this matter is still worth a trip with Zhang Yimou~.

In fact.

After Zhang Yimou learned about this matter, he also had the same idea.

Although "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" will be shot soon, he feels that he and Jiang Wen must talk to Chen Mo about this kind of thing.

Two days later.

Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen rushed to Shenghai together.

Some media even photographed the two of them at the airport.

The news spread to Weibo and immediately sparked heated discussions among netizens.

[Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen arrived in Shenghai, suspected of cooperating on a new film]

Such outrageous news has become one of the top ten trending searches.

no way.

These two people are really famous.

Whether it's Jiang Wen or Zhang Yimou, they are both well-known directors in the entire Chinese entertainment industry. What's more, the two of them are obviously traveling together.

This leaves everyone with no choice but to speculate.

Some media even boldly speculated whether something big happened in the entertainment industry!

The heated discussion among netizens focused on their expressions.

"what happened?"

"Oh, are you two going to leave Jiaxing Entertainment?"

"Is it possible that Jiaxing Entertainment can hold a meeting for them?"

"Two people make a movie together?"

"impossible."

"The two of them are filming a movie, right?"

"Hahahahaha, what a loss to you upstairs!"

"Too unhuman."

"But to be honest, the identities of these two people are really special."

"That's right."

"Jiaxing Entertainment's official Weibo also forwarded the news, and it seems they don't know either.

"interesting.

Netizens have everything they say.

But at this time, Chen Mo had already met Jiang Wen and Zhang Yimou in the Yan family garden.

When they saw Chen Mo again, both Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen seemed a little restrained.

After all, they now know more or less about Chen Mo's identity.

"Teachers, please sit down."

Chen Mo smiled and said to the two people.

Subsequently,

He looked at Zhang Yimou: "Excuse me, Director Zhang. I heard that you are collecting stories?"

As a director, since he was about to start filming "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", Zhang Yimou would definitely have to conduct scouting and location scouting.

"Yes."

Zhang Yimou didn't go around in circles, he nodded seriously and said: "The main thing is to see where is suitable for shooting.

"Good thing."

Chen Mo nodded: "It's best to be serious about filming this drama. We are not afraid of spending money or delaying time. We must be consistent with the original history of the time.

There was a pause.

Chen Mo said slowly: "After all, that period of history should not be forgotten for us."

Of course Zhang Yimou understood what Chen Mo meant and nodded quickly.

Chen Mo looked at Jiang Wen again: "You don't even care about the preparations for the premiere."

"That thing is easy to handle."

Jiang Wen shook his head and said directly: "My wife can handle it.

His wife Zhou Yun can be regarded as his assistant. As a producer, Zhou Yun often takes on the task of managing Jiang Wen's other businesses.

and.

Because "Let the Bullets Fly" has invited two best actors, Fa Ge and Uncle Ge, the movie has enough gimmicks and there is no need to worry about publicity.

Speaking of this matter, I have to say that Jiang Wen is indeed smart. He wrote a letter to Uncle Ge and Fa Ge respectively, expressing his thoughts in long paragraphs in classical Chinese.

and.

In the letter, he also used a trick.

He told Fa Ge that both he and Uncle Ge would join the cast of the new drama. After much deliberation, only you can play the leading actor well.

After Fa Ge saw it, he was naturally overjoyed. He also wanted to cooperate with Uncle Ge and Jiang Wen once, so he agreed.

Little did I know.

In the letter to Uncle Ge, Jiang Wen said that he and Fa Ge had a discussion and found that only Uncle Ge could perform the charm of Master Tang...

Just a scam!

"Okay, let's keep the story short."

Chen Mo said to the two people with a smile.

After all, everyone's time is precious, and Chen Mo doesn't think that wasting each other's time is the right choice.

In this case, there is naturally something to say.

Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen looked at each other. Although they were surprised that Chen Mo actually planned to fund some young directors, they still hoped to hear more of his ideas.

"Mr. Chen, I still want to hear your thoughts.

Zhang Yimou looked at Chen Mo and asked curiously: "Are you really planning to support young directors in China?"

"Yes."

Chen Mo nodded: "I plan to set up a film company, called Big Bad Wolf Film Company, to sign a hundred young directors, and then support them in many aspects to make films.

There was a pause.

Chen Mo said with a smile: “I think it’s time for more fresh blood in the film industry.

After hearing Chen Mo's words, both Jiang Wen and Zhang Yimou nodded slightly.

They must admit that what Chen Mo said makes sense.

Over the years in China's film industry, although actors have emerged one after another, good directors, especially young directors, are really rare.

The reason is actually very simple, because no investor dares to casually hand over a movie that costs millions to a new director to shoot.

To put it bluntly, investors make movies to make money, not to train young directors.

Practicing with real money is like a joke.

But the problem is that if there is no opportunity to train themselves, new directors will never get the opportunity, and their abilities and levels will not be confirmed or improved.

This is an endless cycle!

And now.

Chen Mo obviously wants to break this closed loop!

"I can give you one billion."

Chen Mo thought for a while and said: "One hundred million per year, ten directors are signed every year, and there are one hundred young directors in ten years. Even if one tenth of them succeeds, I think it is a contribution to the film industry." , what do you think?"

Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen looked at each other and couldn't help but admire Chen Mo.

To know.

Although a rich man like him is not short of money, it is not a small matter to spend 100 million every year and persist for ten years.

Or.

People are not short of money, but if they are willing to use their own money to do this, the meaning is naturally different.

"Mr. Chen, on behalf of the young directors in China, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

Jiang Wen looked at Chen Mo and said sincerely.

This is from my heart.

According to Chen Mo's behavior, it can be said that he is completely supporting young directors.

Ten directors and one movie a year.

According to the current domestic movie market, not even one of the ten films may be released.

…0Please give me flowers…………

This is not a joke, it is a fact.

"yes."

Zhang Yimou also spoke from the side: "Mr. Chen, this is a righteous act of yours, an absolutely righteous act."

As a veteran in the director circle, Zhang Yimou actually knows very well that the current domestic film industry is not very friendly to new directors.

New directors will encounter many difficulties in the project development and preliminary preparation stages, and many of them are beyond their control. For example, investment, cycle length, and team creative selection.

With so many uncontrollable factors, the small world of a new director can easily collapse.

As a new director, no matter how big your experience is, how broad your knowledge is, or how well-prepared you feel, you will not know how difficult it is to be a director until you finish making a feature film, and how little you really know.

For example, the length of the preliminary preparation period for a work is uncontrollable.

Some will go through a particularly long cycle because they are waiting for funding and actors.

Some are particularly short-lived because funds were found immediately and actors had schedules.

You know, in the entire production process of a work, the early stage is the most important.

It is necessary to complete the blueprint of the story, create content with value and market value, decide the scenes and content that need to be captured during all shooting periods, form a team, and consider the direction of subsequent publicity, etc.

And these are just the most inconspicuous of the difficulties encountered by new directors.

Generally speaking, there are too few opportunities for young directors in China.

And now.

Chen Mo was giving them a chance.

"I'm not that noble either."

Hearing Jiang Wen and Zhang Yimou's words, Chen Mo suddenly laughed, waved his hands and said: "I will make money when I invest this money."

"of course."

Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen both nodded.

Naturally, they also understood what Chen Mo meant.

Now that the director has been signed, it is natural that the Big Bad Wolf Film Company should be the main investor in the entire plan.

in other words.

Chen Mo plans to invest in ten low-cost films every year to support young directors and give them opportunities to showcase their talents and see if they can impress the audience.

"so be it."

Chen Mo thought for a while and said: "I think we will study the specific implementation rules again."

"Um."

Jiang Wen nodded and spoke first: "I think the age of the young directors targeted can be relaxed to under forty."

"Forty years old?"

Chen Mo was slightly surprised: "Are they already middle-aged?"

It was difficult for him to understand this matter. People over thirty were obviously middle-aged, so why did Jiang Wen classify these people into the category of young directors.

"Ahem, um, Mr. Chen, you don't understand that in our circle of directors, as long as it's your first film, you are considered a young director."

Jiang Wen smiled bitterly and explained to Chen Mo: "It's too difficult for directors to get ahead. Many people may graduate from the directing department in their twenties, but they don't have the opportunity to direct their first film until they are forty."

"So miserable?"

Chen Mo was a little surprised, but he really didn't expect such a thing.

Zhang Yimou on the side nodded and said directly: "Unless you have connections and background, or your family has money. Otherwise, ordinary young directors are just struggling. When they get ahead, they are done."

After hearing their words, Chen Mo suddenly realized that he seemed to know too little about the directing industry.
